Bharat Jodo Yatra at 100: After 100 days of Rahul Gandhi-led Congress' padayatra, Congress claimed that the campaign has been receiving an unprecedented response from people.

Congress MP Rahul Gandhi-led 'Bharat Jodo Yatra' completed 100 days on Friday. The padayatra, which started from Kanyakumari in Tamil Nadu on September 7, has been passing through Rajasthan. Many political analysts said that the massive foot march campaign is an attempt to relaunch the ‘brand Rahul Gandhi’ ahead of the crucial 2024 General Election. It is also seen as a move to mobilise the party cadres and inject confidence in them after a series of election debacles. Only time will tell whether 3,570 km-long march over 150 days will get success to revive Congress or not.
